TeeJay Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 I actually quite like that, which is weird, as B&R don't normally grab my attention... Maybe it's the Russian writing, maybe it's the price... It's just a shame that it's the day/month/24 hour display rather than stopwatch... Might be worth picking up as a beater...

NEVER trust google for an exact translation. If you're lucky you get something that makes sence, kinda. Intrieging homage tho, very B&R. The homage crazies at RWG 1.1 will be interested. They are busy disecting old pocket watches to get MVTs for vintage homage Pams ATM. I particualy like VDB's effort on THIS page and Houndoggie's HERE Col.
